twisterhunt Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 New signs showing 50% sold now. For a couple days the other week there was some machinery (?) on-site, but it doesn't look like anything was done to the property. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twisterhunt Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 The city is doing some sidewalk repairs on Houston Avenue by 2727 Flats, so the equipment here might be unrelated to this project. Otherwise, this is the first activity I've seen on this site since last summer. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First floor parking, then a floor of retail, and then 3 more floors of parking? Also, they referred to the building the party was held as their "sister building?" Looks like the building at Studewood and 11th. Can anyone confirm? Also, Mr. Houston? 🤢 Yes, the party was held at the 1111 Studewood event space. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twisterhunt Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Nothing too exciting to share on this, but I noticed not too long ago that there are new "Cherry Demolition" and "For Sale - to be Moved" signs on the existing restaurant structure. Maybe that's a sign of progress, or they need some extra cash to finance this thru?! I didn't see any official demo permits, but there was a recent Plan Review below... 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twisterhunt Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Second demo permit was issued for a house adjacent to the property on Wrightwood. House dates from 1905, fortunately looks like it will be salvaged / relocated. Guessing this demo is related to the overall project... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twisterhunt Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Wasn't able to get a good picture from my car, but crews were demolishing the structure early this evening - only the metal part is remaining as of now. Originally there were signs on the building indicating it would be moved, clearly there weren't any takers.... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Lucky's is gone and the same guys with the metal detectors are looking for metal. One guy said he found a whole bunch of old coins. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Blue prints and flagging. This will be cast in place using a tower crane just east of the track hoe or maybe in the middle of the site. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 So they set up the vertical mast on the tower crane yesterday and then took it back down. The tower crane operator at the Marquette Companies White Oak apartments was watching while he was in his tower crane (he is about half mile away). He saw my post on IG and at the end of his shift he DMed me about why it was taken back down. I didn't know but he has lots of connections in the business and found out it wasn't plumb/level so they took it back down. Talked with several workers at the site this morning and they confirmed it. They also said lots of the work has been shut down because all the sections of the tower crane take up a big portion of the property. A boss told me they are waiting for shims so they can level the concrete base. Sounds like a very expensive mistake. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 @Heights Neighbor Gave me a heads up about the AT crane showing up on the site, I suspect they will erect the tower crane on Saturday considering the weather were are going to get tonight. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
